On the 24th, the special court for Takeda's shooting opened, which caused a considerable shock in Harbin.

This is a case of diplomats being attacked and injured in self-defense. The defendant tried was a Japanese diplomatic military officer.

The diplomat has a very responsible background and has also served as deputy military officer of the Japanese Consulate in the Soviet Union.

He is the defendant, but the victim.

The plaintiff is the family of two deceased. Takeda Yoshio was accused of intentional murder. One was the son of the deceased, and thought it was the wife of the other deceased!

The reason why this case is paid attention to is because the defendant is Japanese, the plaintiff is Russian (quasi-Soviet Russian expatriates), and the court is a Chinese court, so the judge is naturally Chinese.

One side is a diplomat and the other side is a civilian. In the eyes of the common people, there seems to be nothing between the defendant and the plaintiff's deceased, and there is no motive for murder. However, the plaintiff's relatives sued for intentional murder!

It's intriguing!

The court will be held at nine o'clock.

Seven jurors, four Chinese, one Russian, one Jewish, and one Japanese!

Both Yumi Moriyama and Yunko Duanmu were sitting in the auditorium. Although Takeda Yoshio chose to defend himself, he still needed a lawyer, so Kazuo Sato sat in the defendant's lawyer's seat.

The prosecutor, and the plaintiff's lawyer, both the deceased entrusted the same lawyer, and the judge, the plaintiff and the defendant constitute a special court!

Because the matter involves diplomacy, the court interrogation blocked all the reporters outside, and there were only Japanese representatives and some people from the Soviet consulate and the Security Bureau. The court was covered with gendarmeries, and there were three steps inside, and there were high security.

"The court is now open, bring the defendant!"

Takeda Shioyu, wearing a hospital uniform, slowly walked in through the side door under the escort of a nurse and two bailiffs, and stood in the dock without any shackles.

The police did not determine that Takeda Yoshio murdered people on purpose, so he was not a murderer. If he was not a murderer, he was naturally not a suspect, so he naturally did not need to wear handcuffs or something.

"The defendant proves his true self!"

"The defendant Takeda Tsuyo, former deputy martial arts center of the Japanese Consulate in the Soviet Union, and a member of the tripartite delegation, confirmed it correctly!"

"Okay, prosecutor, please state the case!" the judge said.

"Yes. Lord Judge!" The prosecutor stood up and said, "In the 21st year of the Republic of China... After careful hearing and on-site investigation, we believed that although the defendant could not explain the reason why he appeared in the He tailor shop, the two deceased were beaten to death during the resistance of the defendant during the attack on the defendant. The defendant did not carry any offensive weapons. One of the two deceased was killed by the hard object thrown by the defendant, and the other was the defendant who robbed the deceased and shot to death. The defendant was also seriously injured and has recovered to this day. We have initially determined that the defendant was murdering in self-defense. The crime of intentional homicide is not established, and I am finished!"

"Defendant, do you have any objections to the prosecutor's statement?"

"No!" Takeda Yoshio replied clearly in Chinese.

"Take the first plaintiff!"

After a while, a teenager about seventeen years old was taken to court, Andrey, the son of the deceased Andre.

"Defendant, do you choose to defend yourself or ask your defense lawyer to ask for your questions?"

"Defend yourself!" Takeda Tsuyoshi said.

"Okay, you can ask questions!" After confirming your identity, the judge announced.

"Young man, what's your name?" asked Takeda Tsuyoshi.

"Everyone calls me little Andre!"

"Who do you have any relationship with the dead?"

"My father!"

"What does your father do, why does he own dangerous items like guns?"

"My dad is an animal breeder!"

"Animal keeper, what animal does he raise, horses, cows, or do he raise?"

"ox!"

"Cow, this is a very docile animal. I think he doesn't need a gun as a breeder, or is he raising rhinos or bullfighting?"

"No, it's a cow!"

"As far as I can tell, in Harbin, a very strict decree has been issued, which is to prohibit ordinary people from owning guns. Your father was killed just after the promulgation of the gun ban. I wonder how you explain that your father would have a pistol that can kill people?"

"Oppose!" Little Andre's lawyer stood up and shouted.

"The objection is valid, defendant, please be careful not to use misleading words!" The judge warned Takeda Tsuyoshi.

"Okay, sorry, sir, I have something to ask!"

"You can continue!" the judge nodded.

"Little Andre, have we seen it before?"

"No!" Little Andre shook his head.

"Have you ever heard your father mention me?" Takeda Yoshio continued to ask.

"No!"

"Is there definitely not?"

"I……"

"be opposed to!"

"The objection is invalid, the plaintiff must answer!" said the judge, "I want to remind the plaintiff that lying in the court is a felony!"

"No!" Little Andre struggled for a while and said affirmatively.

"Judge, I've finished asking!" Takeda Tsuyoshi said.

"Take the Second Plaintiff"

A tall and thin Belarusian woman was taken to the court, her eyes were red and swollen.

Takeda Shioyu asked almost the same question again, and then the second plaintiff was taken down and sat in the plaintiff's seat.

"Plaintiff's lawyer, do you have any questions about the defendant?" the judge asked.

"Yes, Lord Judge, I have a problem!" the plaintiff's lawyer stood up and said affirmatively.

"Mr. Takeda, why did you appear in the Ho tailor shop that day?" the plaintiff's lawyer asked loudly.

"Sir Judge, this belongs to me. Can I refuse to answer?"

"My Lord Judge, this question is very critical and is related to the defendant's motive for murder that I will state next!"

"Defendant, you must answer this question!" the judge pondered for a moment and said.

"Okay, I said, I'm going to get the clothes!"

"Is it my own or someone else's?"

"Other's!" Takeda Tsuyoshi said.

"Whose?"

"My boss!"

"Who is your boss? Is he present today?" The plaintiff's lawyer glanced at Yumi Moriyama in the auditor's seat. He found that he was calm and calm without a panic expression.

"Yes, she's in the auditorium!" Takeda Yoshio turned his head and looked at Yumi Moriyama.

"Who are you talking about?"

"The third person on the left, the one wearing a purple coat, when I was the deputy martial arts club in Moscow, she was my boss, Miss Yumi Moriyama!" Takeda Tsuyoshi said.

"Sir Judge. Can I ask Miss Yumi two questions?"

"Plaintiff's lawyer, this does not fall into my power category, but if Miss Yumi doesn't mind, I think it can!"

"You ask!" Moriyama Yumi stood up and nodded slightly.

"Miss Yumi, is Mr. Takeda picking up your clothes at the Ho tailor shop?" asked the plaintiff's lawyer.

"Yes. I only found out afterwards."

“That is, you didn’t know it before?”

"Yes!"

"Then I'm wondering why you don't know why you took out your clothes?" the plaintiff's lawyer asked strangely, with boos at the scene.

"Why should I know, just like sir, you admire a lady and want to give her a gift. Did you tell her before giving her?" Yumi Moriyama asked back.

"Miss Yumi means that Mr. Takeda secretly made a piece of clothing and wanted to give it to you?"

"Yes!"

"Then why did he do this?"

"You should ask him this question?"

"Mr. Takeda, you have heard Miss Yumi's words. Why do you want to give Miss Yumi a piece of clothing?"

"Ms. Yumi has always been my object of my dark curtain, but I knew it was impossible. It happened to Miss Yumi's birthday, so I wanted to give her a special gift. I thought of Chinese cheongsams, so I customized a cheongsam at the He tailor shop. That day I went to get the cheongsam!" Takeda Yoshio said frankly.

"Mr. Takeda is also a passionate person. I know that you already have a wife in Japan, and Miss Yumi also has a fiancé, so you are not afraid..."

"Oppose!" At this time, Ichino Sato suddenly raised his hand and shouted.

"I object to the plaintiff's lawyer's entanglement on meaningless issues. The defendant's emotional problems have nothing to do with this case!"
